Limitations and caveats
This study was halted prematurely as it did not meet pre-specified Progression-Free Survival at Month 6 for Stage 2 Analysis.~Due to early discontinuation of the study with limited data, the study results (data) at Month 12 and End of Study may be unreliable and uninterpretable.

Registered outcomes32

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Progression-free Survival (PFS) as Evaluated by Central Radiologist's AssessmentMonth 6
Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions", or similar definition as accurate and appropriate.
PrimaryProject Overall Survival Rate at Month 66 Months
Overall Survival (OS) was defined as the time from the frist dose of study treatment until the date of death due to any cause. Duration of Overall Survival (OS) in days is defined as (Date of event/censoring- date of First dose +1). Use Kaplan Meier method to project survival rate at month 6.
SecondaryOverall Survival (OS)First dose of study treatment until the date of death due to any cause, whichever came first, a median of approximately 17.67 monthsOverall Survival (OS) was defined as the time from first dose of study treatment until the date of death due to any cause.
SecondaryProject Overall Survival Rate at Month 1212 Months
Overall Survival (OS) was defined as the time from the first dose of study treatment until the date of death due to any cause. Duration of Overall Survival (OS) in days is defined as (Date of event/censoring - date of first dose +1). Use Kaplan Meier method to project survival rate at month 12.
SecondaryMedian Progression Free SurvivalMonth 12Scheduled disease assessment at Cycle 19 Day 1 was used to determine PFS response rate at Month 12.
SecondaryDisease Control Rate (DCR), Central Radiologist's AssessmentMonth 6
Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.".
SecondaryDisease Control Rate (DCR), Central Radiologist's AssessmentMonth 12Disease control rate (DCR) was defined as the proportion of patients with best overall response of SD longer than 6 weeks from first dosing, confirmed PR, or confirmed CR.
SecondaryDisease Control Rate (DCR), Central Radiologist's AssessmentEnd of Study up to 24 monthsDisease control rate (DCR) was defined as the proportion of patients with best overall response of SD longer than 6 weeks from first dosing, confirmed PR, or confirmed CR.
SecondaryOverall (Objective) Response Rate (ORR), Central Radiologist's AssessmentMonth 6
Overall response rate (ORR) was defined as the proportion of patients with best overall response of confirmed PR or confirmed CR. The best overall response was the best overall response recorded from the start of study treatment until the EOS considering any requirement for confirmation. (CR) + partial response (PR) at Months 6
SecondaryOverall (Objective) Response Rate (ORR), Central Radiologist's AssessmentMonth 12
Overall response rate (ORR) was defined as the proportion of patients (Number of Responders) with best overall response of confirmed PR or confirmed CR. The best overall response was the best overall response recorded from the start of study treatment until Month 12.
